Lower self-relevance enhanced the aversive experience and increased the mental cost of resolving moral conflict, reflected by a larger P260-LPP (300-450 ms) effect during weaker conflict decisions toward strangers than themselves and friends. However, this effect was weaker during strong conflict decisions. When making decisions about whether to…[Read more]

Pluripotent state can be established via reprogramming of somatic nuclei by factors within an oocyte or by ectopic expression of a few transgenes. Considered as being extensive and intensive, the full complement of genes to be reprogrammed, however, has never been defined, nor has the degree of reprogramming been determined quantitatively. Here,…[Read more]

A comprehensive understanding of the ultrafast electron dynamics in two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is necessary for their applications in optoelectronic devices. In this work, we contribute a study of ultrafast electron cooling and decay dynamics in the supported and suspended monolayer WS2 by time- and energy-resolved…[Read more]

The CRISPR/Cas system has significant potential to facilitate gene editing in a variety of bacterial species. CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) and CRISPR activation (CRISPRa) represent modifications of the CRISPR/Cas9 system utilizing a catalytically inactive Cas9 protein for transcription repression and activation, respectively. While CRISPRi and…[Read more]

Since CHL has been used in clinics for many years with excellent safety, it has the potential to be further developed into a prophylactic or therapeutic to prevent or treat HFMD caused by EV-A71 or CV-A16 infection.We present a transient absorption setup combining broadband detection over the visible-UV range with high temporal resolution (~20fs)…[Read more]
